Jimmy Kimmel: Not a girlfriend thief after all?

jimmykimmel_jimmykimmellive_290.jpgCould it be? Earlier reports that Jimmy Kimmel is a girlfriend-stealer not true? The Bro Code still holds?

Gossip Cop has debunked the story from Radaronline that Jimmy Kimmel had an assistant removed so that he could make a move on assistant-turned-writer Molly McNearney.

The Gossip Cop site says, "The one-time writer's assistant left Kimmel in 2006 for a full writer's position at Carson Daly. And Kimmel only began dating McNearney after she and her boyfriend had split up."

Furthermore, "Radar is also off when it claims that Kimmel's dating McNearney, the show's co-head writer, has caused staffers to now become 'extremely upset, worried about favoritism and one even blamed being fired on the situation.' Gossip Cop investigated, and no one has been fired from the show in more than a year."

There's lots of rumors and conflicting "sources" out there, kids. Be careful.

Good investigative effort by the Gossip Cop. Seems like some outlets are trying to create controversy where it doesn't exist.

How does Gossip Cop know when they started dating? And aren't Jimmy and Carson good friends? It still seems a bit convenient to say the least. I'm not sure that I'm ready to list this one as debunked just yet.
